New Issue Published - Transactions 9.1

The Editors are pleased to announce the publication of Transactions of AESOP 9.1. This special issue is on the “The Future of Spatial Planning in Ukraine”.  It emerged from the third iteration of the ‘Rebuilding a Place to Call Home’ symposium which was convened in Lviv in 2024 around three main themes on the future of spatial planning: (i) governance for recovery; (ii) planning tools and learning; and (iii) knowledge in and for planning.

The special issue provides an edited collection of written contributions presented by the invited panel presenters to offer international readers a well-rounded overview of spatial planning in Ukraine, with a view to linking the findings to the broader European research context. It is built around the thee major topics of the regional post-war recovery, evolving spatial planning instruments and planning education.

Thank you to the Guest Editors Oleksandr Anisimov and Dominic Stead for bringing together this special issue.
